As described here https://docs.docker.com/compose/gettingstarted/#step-7-update-the-application if I mount the folder with the source code inside the volumes of that docker, I should see my changes instantly...
However, this is my docker-compose:
version: '3'
services:
database:
...
engine:
build: ./name
restart: always
volumes:
- .:/name-code
- ./name/config-examples:/config
ports:
- 8080:8080
depends_on:
- database
environment:
- TZ=Europe/Rome
...
grafana:
...
and as you can see I'm mounting .:/name-code... so as soon as I change code inside this directory, I should see that docker restarting with the new JAR (I'm developing a Spring boot application)... however this is not happening, infact my local jar looks like this:
-rw-r--r-- 1 user staff 43171359 Jun 1 12:35 project.jar
but the jar in the docker is the following:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 43171269 May 31 19:52 app.jar
(Is just been renamed), but as you can see the last update is very different, and infact the updates are not been imported

Use 'docker scan' to run Snyk tests against images to find vulnerabilities and learn how to fix them
the Dockerfile of the engine service is the following:
FROM adoptopenjdk/openjdk11:jdk-11.0.11_9-alpine-slim
ARG JAR_FILE=target/*.jar
COPY ${JAR_FILE} app.jar
COPY config-examples /app/config
CMD ["java","-jar","/app.jar"]
I read again you post, and the misunderstanding is on the fact that .:/name-code is a volume mount point, it is not part of the docker image built by docker-compose, so changing its content does not force docker to rebuild the image. Else, the new content will be accessibile from the container.
For that reason you can see that CACHED [2/3] COPY target/*.jar app.jar is retrieved from a cached layer.
In my opinion the solution is to write a custom Dockerfile which adds explicitly the jar as depicted here https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/compose-file-v3/#dockerfile . So, each time the jar changes, the image will be rebuilt as you expect.
Regards.
